Pakistan Women lock horns with South Africa Women in the second ODI at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Friday, September 19. The visiting team registered a sensational eight-wicket victory in the first ODI of the three-match series and is currently 0-1 up in the series, with two more games to be played.
South Africa started the ODI leg on a high, clinching the first game in Lahore by eight wickets thanks to a record-breaking partnership. Chasing 256, the visitors were struggling at 43 for 2 after losing Laura Wolvaardt and Sune Luus soon after. Following this, Marizanne Kapp and Tazmin Brits took complete control from there.

Probable Top Performers from PAK W vs SA W
Probable Best Batter: Marizanne Kapp
South Africa’s Marizanne Kapp could be the best batter in the second ODI against Pakistan women. The 35-year-old in the first ODI played a match-winning knock of 121 not out, which guided her team to a win. In her 128 deliveries, she smashed the opposition bowlers to all parts of the ground and laced her innings with 13 boundaries and two sixes. In the upcoming game, Kapp will look to play similarly and guide the visitors to yet another win.
Probable Best Bowler: Ayabonga Khaka
South Africa’s Ayabonga Khaka could be the best bowler in the next game against the home team, Pakistan. The right-arm pacer in the last game picked two wickets and leaked 36 runs. Laura Wolvaardt will once again trust the pacer to deliver for the team.
